| Chateau/Producer: | Bodegas Toro Albala | | Wine Name: | Don PX Pedro Ximenez Gran Reserva | | Country: | Spain | | State: | Cordoba | | AOC: | Montilla-Moriles | | Region: | Cordoba | | Wine Score: | 95 | | Notes: | The color is a dark, dark brown...basically black, but along the edges or swirled up onto the sides of the glass, you can see that it's actually dark brown. This wine is exactly the color of cane syrup, or molasses. The nose is similarly like cane syrup or molasses, caramelly and sweet, with a strong scent of brown sugar. The flavor is amazing...do I have to say, cane syrup or molasses? Yes, those are the main flavors, with a bit of heat from the alcohol, dense and sweet, with the hint of metallic/mineral quality that goes along with cane syrup, and a finish that goes on and on and on. Oh, wow. I want to pour this on my pancakes, but that would just dilute the goodness. | | Tasting Date: | 2005-10-11 | | Varietal: | Pedro Ximenez | | Production Notes: | Select lots of Pedro Xim | | Price US$: | 24.99 | | Source: | Cork & Bottle, Baton Rouge |
